Symbolon Begins New Session

Symbolon: The Catholic Faith Explained

Learn where the Bible came from and how it was put together. Learn about The Story of Salvation and what the Church believes about Mary and thesSaints. Discover how all of the parts of the Catholic Faith fit together.

Join Deacon Greg Hall for Symbolon: The Catholic Faith Explained, a new parish DVD program beginning on Sept. 10. Over 10 weeks, Deacon Greg will take you on a journey through the core beliefs and teachings of the Catholic Church with the goal of helping Catholics better know and understand their faith.

The series, developed by the Augustine Institute with the assistance of Dr. Edward Sri and a host of prominent Catholic teacher, theologians and lay people, uses the creed as a guide to walk through salvation history as traced out by the Catechism. Deacon Greg will facilitate the program and discussions as we move from creation and the fall to Christ’s redemptive death and resurrection, to His founding the Catholic Church and His coming at the end of time.

Some of the topics covered are The Bible, The Story of Salvation, Who is Jesus, Mary and the Saints and The Last Things as well as others. Part one of Symbolon will begin at 7 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 10 and will run for 10 weeks. Part Two of Symbolon, "Living the Faith" will begin in the spring.

The cost for the workbook and materials is $25 per person. For more information and registration contact Deacon Jack Alexander, Director of Adult Faith Formation and RCIA, at
